Does this sound familiar? You've eliminated gluten, dairy, and artificial colors. You're giving your child the best organic foods and high-quality supplements. You've invested thousands in therapies and interventions. Yet your child is still struggling with gut issues, motor delays, and getting sick constantly. What?! How?!
When your child's nervous system gets stuck in "fight-or-flight" mode, their body literally steals energy from other crucial systems to survive. And it happens in an order that we see all the time at ABQ Family Chiropractic.
โ
Round 1: Energy gets stolen from the gut, causing digestive chaos - colic, reflux, constipation, and food sensitivities that no amount of dietary changes seems to fix.
โ
Round 2: Next, the motor system suffers from delayed crawling, W-sitting, toe walking, poor coordination, and weak core strength that doesn't improve with traditional therapies.
โ
Round 3: Finally, the immune system crashes, leading to chronic ear infections, frequent illness, inflammation, and eventually autoimmune conditions.
YES we love organic and whole foods! YES we love adding in supplements! But without the nervous system being addressed first, this is why millions of kids today struggle with chronic gut problems despite having pristine diets and hundreds of dollars in supplements every month. The problem doesn't start with their nutrition; it starts with their neurology!
Understanding this energy theft hierarchy finally explains why your child's body seems to be working against all the good things you're doing for them. When you address the root cause first, everything else starts working better!
